USL1 (5UE) Proposals to the governments, NGOs and the UN (15minutes)

Introduction:
1) What is 5UEs
2) The origin of USL and USL pilot study results
3) The Moore´s Law for the human capital vs. the economic growths (HWU1 for our USL1 which quickly advances 2 years of maths to students)
4) The economic implications of the USL1 with the 5-10-20 rule ( The developed countries grow 5x, the mid-tier countries grow about 10x and the least developed countries grow over 20x over the next 40-50 years=
5) To create a USL-UN-based international treaty to make our world better satisfying all 5UE principles to protect the local economy, environment, and to promote renewable energy instead of continuing the abuse of the economic growths at the expense of the rest.
This is a general introduction to the governments and the UN, etc, to make them understand better about the USL1.
USL1 tries to boost the huamn per capita growth rate by 2% average over the next 70-80 years or so, which can overcompensate for the rapid renewable energy over the next 25-45 years with its massive surplus contributions to the economics grwoth in exchange of a new international treaty led by the UN to promote the sustainable developments of the renewable energy, circular economy, environmental protection, and empowering people in many levels.
The basic premise is that the world average SURPLUS GDP due to USL1 alone will be about 10 times of the current entire world GDP over the next 40-50 years. The expected total costs to transition 95-10% to the renewable energy is 1-3 times of the current world GDP total. If the proper global accord is established, USL1 may provide a breakthrough approach to satisfy the 5UE principles to make our world much better. 5 UEs in chronological order is Unified 5Es: 1) Education 2) Education 3) Energy 4) Environment 5) Empowerment.
Furthermore, USL series will have the sequence of back up plan. Although USL1 will suffice to resolve the top governmental and the UN agendas, e.g. to resolve the transition to RE once, twice, or even thrice; to take care of the entire Millennium Development Goals scale operations dozens of times bigger and more rapid and eliminate the extreme poverty in less than 5 years; to protect the environment in far bigger scales; to take care of the education issues and student loan debts etc far faster and much more efficiently ..... all if the world responds to the USL1 proposals and willing to make a global movement out of this.

UN climate conf. ignores solar policy,

Solar me up.
The implied UN consensus on solar & renewable energy distracts us from the fact that the true conflict has just begun, although on a different front. Corporations control the UN, the media & US Congress. All of these official bodies issue statements, written by lawyers for Big Oil, which the press then repeats exactly as written by Big Oil. This pretend consensus seduces us into underestimating the inevitable conflicts associated with energy change, which means we fail to face up to them. Locally, we have the fake “Clean Power Marin” which sells nuclear power, labeled as “Deep Green”, when it is exactly the same as PG&E sells. But it costs more. Bernie Maddof is still alive & well. Which means we listen to what the media says, not realizing it is intended to prevent any change from coal, oil, nukes & gas. (King C.O.N.G.). They differ from earlier conflicts over solar & renewable energy and are also more profound. Where the transition to renewable energy has, to all intents and purposes, begun, we have now arrived at the moment of truth: the effective substitution of solar energy & renewables for nuclear and fossil energy has a direct effect on Big Oil & the established energy structures.
Big oil will be shut down by solar, when each state starts building 1 million solar powered homes.
Plus add a solar payment policy requiring Utilities to pay $0.33 kwh to solar home owners.
We now have developed solar & renewables technology so that we can today run every city with solar, wind & renewables. But we don’t, because Big Oil owns Congress, the media & most local green groups, like Sierra Club & 350.
Before you go into a meeting, blast everyone you expect to meet with love.
Just as light casts out darkness, so to does love cast out fear.
You can't both give off love and malice at the same time.
Make your energy be as powerful as the sun, and as warm.
You inevitably will win your daily battles against malice & darkness.
If you do good work, people will attack you.
Continue to do good work.
Blast people with love and you will pave the path ahead of you with smoothness.
Big Oil & the 1% who own Congress & the Governors are not about to let anyone with solar panels sell free, safe, clean quiet solar energy onto our grid.
Big Oil is closely intertwined with the dominant systems of production and consumption, economic structures and political institutions.

The Economics of Renewable Energy w/ Gundersen & Lovins

http://erenewableenergyinfo.com/
AL: Quite a few nuclear plants are starting to shut down because they, too, are uneconomic to operate. They can't compete with the wholesale power price and that's regardless of what they may have cost to build originally. Because that cost is already sunk and you cant un-spend it. And anyway, it's probably paid off by now because the plants are old. And I just wrote a piece in the April, 2013, The Atomic Scientist about the economics of U.S. nuclear phase-out, and we're in one. It's kind of in slow motion but any nuclear plant that has big repair bills like Crystal River or San Onofre stands a good chance of shutting down, and it's kind of like having the engine blow up in your car and it's an old car and you've got to figure out, is it worth putting in a whole new engine and betting that something else important isn't going to break during the time you wanted to get the benefit out of the new engine. And it's a pretty hard bet to make because as these plants get old, stuff starts to wear out, you get fatigue and corrosion and all kinds of age-dependent effects, there has been a very rapid escalation in the real cost of big maintenance jobs on these plants, what are called net capital additions, because they're actually added to the capital cost rather than expensed. And the industry has been pretty careful not to find out whether that escalation is mostly for upgrading to produce more power -- whether it's a productive investment -- or whether it's more and more big repairs caused by aging effects. That would be very bad news for those who have just gotten their licenses extended or are about to, to go into 20 years of overtime, because it would mean that your license lets you run the plant, but it's not worth continuing to fix it. And I think there is some evidence emerging that for many plants, that will be the case.
AG: The New York Times, Matt Wald ran a story saying that the economics of these plants is marginal right now. And it's especially true with the single-unit plants because they don't have a second unit to average out the labor costs and it's especially true because all these plants are now pushing 40 years. The net effect is that as soon as there's a problem, management's going to pull the plug and shut the plant down. The cost to keep your staff fed for the half-year or year to make a major repair can never be amortized in addition to the cost of the repair over 20 more years to the plant site.
AL: Yeah. This is very different, of course, from the situation with modular renewables. If you had a gearbox break on a wind machine or an inverter break on a photovoltaic plant, it's a matter of typically days to weeks to get the new one in and you just plug it in and keep going. You don't have to worry about radioactivity. It really isn't a difficult repair -- a standard industrial repair. And it only affects one unit at a time. It's at most a few megawatts, it's not 1,000 megawatts.

Keynote Speech 1 "Achievements and Challenges for Renewable Energy in Japan and Germany"

United Nations Climate Change Pledges

A United Nations summit on climate change agreed on Tuesday to widen the use of renewable energy and raise billions of dollars in aid for developing countries in an effort to increase the prospects for a wide-ranging deal to slow global warming. The UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon hailed the achievements of the climate Summit, saying the event and the pledges by countries and industries show the world can "rise to the climate challenge

Future Talk #46, Clean Renewable Energy

October 29, 2013
An interview with Mark Z. Jacobson, leading atmospheric scientist and Director of the Atmospheric Energy Program at Stanford University, who says that it's possible for the world to meet all of its energy needs through renewable ressources like wind, water and solar energy alone without having to use fossils at all. Martin Wasserman hosts.

IBCentre channel. 2nd International Renewable Energy & Energy Efficiency Forum REF-2013 Moscow.
The second international sustainable energy forum, known as REF, has got underway in Moscow. The event brings together senior executives of Russian and foreign companies in the energy sector. Solar, wind, hydro and other sources of renewable energy are on the agenda for the forum.
The Forum is a platform for discussions on key issues such as legislation and regulation of sustainable energy industry. It allows heads of leading energy companies to brainstorm ways at developing renewables sector in Russia and beyond.
This event is held in Russia for the second time. It is relatively small but nonetheless it is held in parallel with the UN climate change conference in Warsaw. It is one of key meetings on renewable energy in Eastern Europe.
Energy sustainability is becoming an important issue in many parts of the world. And Russia is no exception. Russia wants to be seen as a country which takes green and sustainable energy seriously and provides favourable conditions for investment in it.
